Tork, Leonard and Kreidler all in the lineup for Toledo.

Tork thinks he's unique. I don't know where the confidence comes from, he's had two good months in the ML. Just do what everyone else is doing. Javy is the same. He thinks he can be successful with the same approach he had in his twenties. News flash, your approach always sucked, you just had the physical ability to overcome it but now you don't. This is the failing of the coaching staff. They can't convince these guys they aren't unique. There are few paths to success in hitting.

I don't think it's his swing. It's his approach. He's thinking about where his hands are while everyone else in baseball is thinking about their lower half.

This is exactly from the MLB Network interview Tork and Greene did at the start of the year. Tork said all I'm thinking is hands and Greene said I'm the opposite and the host said everyone he ever talked to was also the opposite. Tork derp.

Brieske time travelling to 1980 for the three inning save. Nope he would win. Vest warming up.

How about we just score six runs now so I don't have a heart attack in the ninth?

JAKE!

Brieske just struck out everybody.

Somehow he will give up a walk off grand slam.

Keith back to sucking this week.

Score runs dummies

Skubal not quite as sharp as usual but still avoids damage.

Jake!

Malloy flies out to the warning track in right center on the first pitch. Welcome to the big leagues.

The rare Skubal change up that just hung there.

Dan Petry says he owes everything to Jim Leyland for helping him get to the big leagues. So do a lot of other guys and that's why he's going to the hall of fame and getting his number retired.

Copy/paste from the draft? He can't even play first base.

A.I. took his job.

Buddy Kennedy designated for assignment to make room for Malloy. Keston Hiura released.

Vierling on the bench.

Rogers has been one of the best hitters on the team the last two weeks.

Skubal on the mound so they should score eight runs at least.

I'm looking forward to what Malloy can do. His minor league numbers are very consistent. He gets on base at an elite level and has some power. He's exactly Harris' type of hitter. Let's see if his success in the minors can produce results in the Majors.
